Produktbeschreibung
A quietly radical collection: essays that illuminate how medicine touches the body, the mind, and the land that sustains them. Essays In Pastoral Medicine gathers historical medical essays into a humane, reflective medical humanities anthology. Written in early twentieth century america with a rural america setting, the pieces chart the physician patient relationship, ethics, spiritual healing perspectives, and the care that binds doctor and community. With lucid prose and a gentle, searching tone, the book moves from the clinic to the countryside, offering a thoughtful meditation on medicine as a vocation and a social practice. It is at once a physician's notebook and a window into rural life, touchstones for readers of medical humanities and for medical historians alike. This volume is significant both literarily and historically: it preserves the sensibilities of a bygone medical world while inviting modern readers to rethink care, duty, and hope. For casual readers and classic-literature collectors alike, the book offers accessible prose, enduring questions, and a reverent sense of place. It belongs in a culture that values pastoral care literature and the ethical complexities of care across time and terrain. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure. A true milestone for anyone curious about the medical past and its lasting human significance.
